Abstract

In a battery powered selective call receiver receiving a synchronous signal (100), a battery saving method extends battery life by optimizing the amount of time (124, 128) the receiver circuit is activated when searching for reception of a predetermined code (134) after previously (104) acquiring synchronization with the signal.
